Google's Summer of Code program pairs students up with experienced mentors in selected free and open source software projects. In addition to making valuable contributions to their host organisation, students gain experience working in a productive group environment and are further rewarded with a monetary stipend of up to $6600.00 USD for their successful completion of the program.

Prospective students should read the recommended steps on our instructions page and start participating as soon as possible. Application submission officially opens on March 20th, and we would love to get to know you well before then. We're here to help and answer any questions you may have. Please reach out on IRC in #phpbb-dev on irc.freenode.net.
